Well, if it is like my Xplorer, which I am sure it is.... I believe it is a 1 1/4" axle nut on the outsides.
The 2 in the middle that hold the rear axle to the eccentric are 1 3/4"

thanks

 

im not trying to be rude here but cant u just go out and try a few sockets? it takes seconds. i can just look at a nut and then tell what size i need.

 

most people dont have sockets that big maybe he has to go buy one??

 

I agree, I do not own any 1 1/4" sockets as everything I normally work on is metric.

It took me quite some time to get ahold of something that could even take off those 1 3/4" nuts that hold the axle around the eccentric. luckily I was able to borrow a tool, 1 3/4" combo wrenches aren't cheap! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Check your local Fleet Farm type stores, they often times have some good quality, larger socket sets....and they're normally very reasonably priced.

Also a great source for Jungle Jake, THE best Simple Green type quad cleaner. Remember to reduce it down per the instructions.

 

i have about $12.000 worth of tools but i dont have any deep 1/2 inch drive sockets that big and i cannot us the shorts because they are not long enough . wanted to know what i needed to get from the mac tools truck . didnt want to buy a whole set $$$$$$$$$$$ . plus i keep the quad about 35 minutes from where i live . thanks

 

The nut that holds the rear hubs on is 1 1/8"
